Hiroaki Sato

Hiroaki Sato is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Anesthesia, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, McGill University, and an Associate Investigator in the Metabolic Disorders and Complications Program at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (RI-MUHC). His work bridges clinical practice and translational research in surgical stress response management.

• Education: MD and PhD (inferred from title)

Research Focus: Dr. Sato investigates pharmacological and nutritional interventions to modulate the body's catabolic response to cardiac and major surgeries. Key areas include glycemic control, insulin sensitivity, and perioperative metabolic optimization.

Publication Trends: His recent work (2010-2014) centers on normoglycemic strategies (GIN therapy), statin effects on insulin resistance, and metabolic-cognitive interactions during cardiac surgery. Publications span journals like Diabetes Care, J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth, and PLOS ONE.
